The Carbon Metal Bond In Organometallic Grignard Reagents Exhibits Significant Covalent Character However We Can Treat 1 (89.61 KiB) Viewed 70 times

The carbon-metal bond in organometallic Grignard reagents exhibits significant covalent character. However, we can treat these compounds as electron-rich carbanions because of the large difference in electronegativity between carbon and magnesium. These reagents are great to form carbon-carbon bonds but must be kept in an anhydrous environment to work effectively. Show the curved arrow mechanism and both products for the reaction between water and the effective carbanion resulting from ethylmagnesium bromide. Do not show the magnesium and bromide in your answer. 2nd attempt See Periodic Table See Hint H -H Add the missing curved arrow notation.
